Hi, will the following product work with my 1998 Discovery 2 300TDI.

Digital Heads Up Display With Alarm/Water/Temperature Speed Warning OBD-II F Car

It can be viewed at Digital Heads UP Display With Alarm Water Temperature Speed Warning OBD II F CAR | eBay (http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Digital-Heads-Up-Display-With-Alarm-Water-Temperature-Speed-Warning-OBD-II-F-Car-/321188915601?pt=AU_Gadgets&hash=item4ac859e991)

I almost cooked my diesel due to a faulty temp guage. I need an audible alarm.
Your opinion would be very helpful. Thank you - Gerry.:(;):D

Australian spec D1 300tdi's don't have an ECU at all therefore you won't get any joy from plugging anything into the OBD port. There are markets where ECU's were fitted and the wiring is present for them. There are plenty of temperature alarms around suitable for directly monitoring the engine by a sensor screwed to the cylinder head. Search the forum, I'm sure you'll get lots of results!
